Englewood is a poor community where low class, middle-class people reside. I dislike almost everything about this neighborhood. The only good things I see is the church around the corner from my home feeding the homeless every Saturday morning and the new and improved school for the community. However, people, including me, have a hard time feeling safe outside- whether it's going to the store, walking to school, the park or even to your car, you are putting your life at risk. The crime rates are very high and there are predominately black people and few Mexicans that live in this area. Mostly people with low income are struggling to deal with the violence and unemployment and I wish it could change. Englewood needs more diversity, job opportunities and crime control.
Englewood is an okay neighborhood.Many drug dealers and abusers walk up and down the streets but if you don't bother anybody, nobody bothers you. A Starbucks and Whole Foods opened up around 63rd and Halsted, I believe that Englewood within time will become an up-and-coming neighborhood and its is probably for the best for the safety of the neighborhood kids and making sure that they can comfortably and safely go to school and go back to their homes so they can earn their education and become the great scholars they're meant to be.
I like Englewood area because it offered a safe place for me and my family. My grandparents moved to the area from Memphis Tennessee. They raised their children, my aunts and uncle whom all graduated college and living in the Suburban area. Over time Englewood I believe has gotten a bad reputation of being a violent area which makes it unattractive to live there however the homes in Inglewood are beautiful and will have some of the nicest properties. And once I finish school and receive my degrees I am not leaving Englewood my plan is to have my home builders from the ground up. Englewood used to be a food desert now we have stores like whole foods nice restaurants like chipotle coffee shops like Starbucks. Companies are starting to invest in the development of Englewood and I am grateful for that.
